Larkspur Properties is a value-oriented investment firm focused on distressed residential and commercial projects. Primarily operating in Florida markets, Larkspur identifies undervalued real estate by employing a micro-focused, ground up investment approach.
Larkspur’s critical focus is on providing downside protection to its investors by underwriting properties based on in-place cash flow and conservative operating assumptions. Larkspur creates investor value by employing strategies overlooked or not performed by prior ownership. These strategies include improving management, re-positioning vacancy issues and instituting aggressive marketing programs.
Founded: June 2009 by David Bernstein
